Dear All, I confirm that I can make the 11th April for the teleconference. I had forgotten that we needed to distinguish between a two year and a three year appointment. It would seem logical to select Mr Zhou for the three year post, as he has been waiting for nearly a year for the other appointee to be chosen!

It looks like it's now the time to announce the PSO-PC decision formally (especially the IETF/W3C common selection). In this light and also for considering the issues highlighted by Gerry on the selection of the ICANN Directors, we have to look closer into these matters. I would suggest we have a teleconference at your earliest convenience. I would like to suggest a day somewhere between 9 and 11 April (to accomplish that before Easter), but I'm afraid that would not necessarily fit into your busy agenda... Please get back to me with your proposals based on your own availability. Thanks, Livia -----Original Message----- From: Louis Touton [mailto:touton@icann.org] Sent: 17 March 2001 21:55 To: Livia Rosu Cc: icann-board@icann.org Subject: PC Appointments to Independent Review Nominations Committee To: Livia Rosu Lunguran, PSO Secretariat As you may recall, the Protocol Council is responsible for appointing two members to ICANN's Independent Review Panel Nominating Committee, one for a two-year term and the other for a three-year term. Some time ago, the PC noted in its minutes that Houlin Zhao would be appointed for one of these positions, as selected by ITU-T/ETSI. (The Address and Names Councils have completed their appointments.) I have heard informally that IETF/W3C wish to select Tim Berners-Lee for the other position. The ICANN Board would like to have the (several) steps toward establsihment of the Independent Review Panel completed promptly. As a next step, could you look into when the PC can formally make the appointments of Zhao and Berners-Lee, including allocation of the two- and three-year terms? Once you get an idea of the schedule, please let me know. Thanks for your help. Best regards, Louis Touton ICANN Secretary =========================================================================
